We used Ame's for about a year and they do a thorough job cleaning. The cost was a little high and we were expected to tip the ladies on top of the contracted rate. I was able to get someone to come on pretty short notice which was good but it seemed like there was always someone different sent to clean.

Response from AME'S CLEANING
Hi [member name removed], thank you for your feedback. We appreciated serving you and are pleased that you found our cleaning services thorough. Regarding gratuity, about 75% of our clients choose to tip, and we leave that completely at our client's discretion; our employees appreciate anything that is given. We do make it a priority to send a primary team to client's homes that are on a regular schedule. Understandably, if a client is not on a regular schedule rotation and calls sporadically or on short notice, the likelihood of a repeat team being available is low.

Ame was able to work me into the schedule last minute when I needed help preparing the house for Easter guests. A crew of 2 nice ladies provided a deep clean of our 3 bedroom, 2 bath house. They cleaned every inch to perfection! I was impressed with the attention to detail - the house was absolutely spotless! I hope to use Ame's service again in the future, on a regular basis.

Provided a standard clean ahead of an every-other-week schedule, but cleaned things I didn't expect, which was nice, so it felt more like a deep clean. They were very punctual and efficient. I gave the responsiveness a B because they didn't use some of the floor cleaning and furniture polishing products I put out for them to use. Or perhaps that type of cleaning is only done in the deep cleaning service. They did clean all of the floors, but not with my products. They were willing to design a standard cleaning around my needs because my husband had very bad allergies. We're just getting started with them, but we are very pleased with our first cleaning and look forward to their next visit.

It is not worth the frequent phone calls to remedy mistakes made by this company.
Description of Work: I have employed Ame's for 2 and a half years. On the first visit I noticed a bleach stain on a brand new bedspread. Ame suggested I caused the stain because they "do not use products with bleach" . After assuring her this was not my error, she called the cleaning crew and they confessed they had been using a bleach product and the stain was most likely their fault. To their credit Ame's replaced the bedspread. They guarantee they will use your cleaning products if requested. When I hired Ame I was adamant that they clean all the tile in my home with the product I provided. Ame assured me they would. I have had my tile sealed ( in a brand new house) and needed to have a specific cleaner used for my floor cleaning. After a while I noticed that my cleaner was not running low. After calling the company I discovered that they did not keep their word and were using a different cleaner than I specifically requested them to. This error caused my warranty to be nullified. I also discovered last week that one of my bedrooms and bathrooms were not cleaned. Ame offered to come clean the room but company was already at my house and I had to clean the rooms myself while trying to prepare a meal and entertain guests. The final straw was yesterday. Ame always comes at the same time, as verified by our alarm system. I set an alarm and woke up early on my day off after a long trip. Ames cleaners did not arrive until 4 hours after they usually do. I did not get a phone call preparing me for this and had my entire day's plans ruined because of their lack of communication. I am no longer using Ame's. Each time they offered to remedy the situation, however each remedy includes someone coming to the house and interrupting our schedule.

One story stands out - and it's from this spring. Our crew somehow caused a stovetop knob to snap off -- not come off for cleaning, stick it back on the post but snap off flush with the surface of the stove holy cow how do you fix THIS? We looked into repairing it, and it would cost about $100 in parts and more for labor (our stovetop dates back to the '80s). Once we clarified with Ame exactly what had happened -- though no one is really certain how that knob sheared off that way -! -- we agreed that she would comp our next cleaning and we'd call it even. We happened to be out of town during that next visit, so we were especially pleased to find that she had instructed the crew to do a deep (detailed) cleaning -- the sort that's usually the first visit from a new service. Such a great way to make things right between us! In fact, it's slipped my mind to request one every so often (there's nothing like a good deep scrub all around) -- I'll be asking for one every year or so from now on.
Description of Work: We've been a client for nearly 10 years. Ame's sends the same crew each visit, and evidently keeps detailed information on household customs & preferences, since even when the crew changes our ideosyncracies (for the most part) are still coddled. We have them come every two weeks, and they are prompt & brisk - about 2hrs for our 2500 sq ft. We have them change the beds and launder bedding as well as the rough cleaning. They're reliable & effective -- that's why we've stayed so long! It's great to know that the work you've delegated is well taken care of.

First of all, their were two maids, neither of which spoke English. I watched them dust some tables...they slid the books, flower arrangements etc over the tables instead of picking them up, thus causing minor scratches in the wood. I have a table runner on the dining table and they didn't move it or dust around it. The toilets and sinks appeared to be lightly skimmed over and not scrubbed. Overall, the entire cleaning was very superficial; something I could have done myself in half the time. Called the owner and she offered to have them come back but told her no, they weren't good to begin with. Also, sensed a little disgust by the owner with my call so won't have them come back ever again. (This is the first time in my life I have ever called a cleaning company because I was dissatisfied)
Description of Work: General housecleaning...light dusting, sinks, vacuum trafficways, washed kitchen and bathroom floors, mirrors

Response from AME'S CLEANING
Dear Member, I am sorry that you had an unsatisfactory experience with us nearly a year and a half ago, and dismayed that you did not elect to have our team return to your home at that time to rectify the situation. Our teams are very good at what they do, which is clean. Not all of them speak English, but if that is a priority for a client, we will make sure to send out a team that does. Our office administration is fully bilingual and capable of relaying any messages specific to a client's home. We have a satisfaction guarantee, which means that if you are unsatisfied with your cleaning, we will always return to observe and correct the areas that were lacking. I am sorry if you sensed some "disgust" during our conversation, but I can assure you that I both welcome and encourage client feedback. It is the only way we know whether we are doing our job correctly. Thank you for your comments. Best, Ame

It went well. I get the same team every two weeks. The clean the kitchen and bathrooms well. I feel they could do more of the "details" more frequently - I get a lot of cobwebs in corners that remain until I remove them.

I had hired them twice in the past to come out and clean my house without many problems. I used them because a friend told me she liked them. She was always home when they came. I work full time so I set out a key. They came to do the cleaning and I had istructed them on where to find the key. The last time they came (the date above), they could not find the key and that was just the beginning of the problems. I instructed them to use my back entrance. The key was hidden under my grill cover where the tools are stored. The grill is 5 feet from my back door and I only have one of them in my private backyard. I got a call at work and they claimed they could not locate the key. I reminded them where it was and they said they would relay the info to the maids at my house (the call was from their office). About 30 minutes later, I got a call saying they had found a key but it wouldnt fit in the door. I use the key regularly so I know it works. They had tried making it work on both front and back doors. All my locks use the same key so it should have worked. After several more phone calls being traded, I decided to leave the office to make sure the key was where I promised it was and that it did work. They sent the maids onto thier next appointment without cleaning my house. When I arrived at home, my key was right where I said it was and I used it to get into my house. I called the service back to tell them they were incorrect and that is where I recieved more information. They had apparently found one of my neighbors hide-a-keys AND jammed that key into my doors. If they were in my backyard originally, that should not have even been a possiblity. To top all of that off, cleaning services are not cheap. I pay them to come in, use their cleaning products, and clean my house. I moved my ke to a completely obvious place (hoping no one else would enter my yard and find it and asked them to come back. I returned to work. They did come back later that afternoon but there was another problem when they did. They had decided to not use their cleaning products but to use mine. I noticed because some of my products were running low and after their visit, they were empty. I was mad but tried to get over it. This was the last straw. I told them to not come back. I have started using Morehands and they are so much better. I did not rate them as F because the other times they had visited, things went ok. I will never use them again and do not recommend them.
Description of Work: I live in a 2 bed/2 bath home. They were hired to come clean it. Tubs, floors, kitchen, etc. All normal house cleaning. I do my own laundry so that is not something they were told to do/start.

Response from AME'S CLEANING
Dear Member, Thank you for your feedback. At times, in spite of our best efforts, things do not work out exactly as planned. I am sorry that you a had a negative experience with us. Our policy when we have difficulty accessing a home is to contact the client. If we can not gain entrance to the home in a reasonable amount of time, we will proceed to the next appointment. We will always return the same day to honor the client's appointment if the original access issue has been resolved. As far as cleaning supplies, we provide approximately 10 products to keep a home in the best condition. However, there are some items we do not transport from home to home in the interest of sanitation/client preference: a toilet brush in each bathroom area, 100% cotton cloths for floors, the client's preferred floor cleaner for tile/wood, and a vacuum if the client has pets. We have many clients that elect to provide additional products such as furniture polish, mildew remover, a specialty stove cleaner, etc. All I can say is that perhaps our team used The Member's products because they thought, in error, that the products were provided by The Member for use in The Member's home. Again, I am sorry that you had a negative experience with Ame's Cleaning. If you elect to have us service you again, I can promise you will not be disappointed. Thank you, Ame

So-so. The crew of two women who could not speak English were there for two hours. They cleaned surfaces well, but it appears they did not clean the baseboards other than dusting them off (no wipe down as requested) so I had to go back and do them myself before the painters came. The kitchen was cleaned adequately, as was the master bath, but the other two baths were cleaned in a slipshod manner (dust and dirt in corners, floors behind toilets). The agreed upon price was $90, but the two demanded more, even after I had tipped them. A generally unsatisfactory experience.
Description of Work: Make ready. Three bathrooms, kitchen, including fridge, baseboards, tile floors.

They do a good job cleaning. We have only had one incident of something getting broken. They left a note and offered to pay for the item. They come when we are not home, so I really don't know if they are on time or not. Getting them on the telephone can be difficult sometimes.

I couldn't give Ame's an overall score of A because even though the ladies did an excellent job. The price was good, getting to the point where they actually came to the house was laborious. The only problem with the cleaning was one of the ladies tried to clean some big bathroom light bulbs, when they were still hot, and broke 5 of them. I had to call a couple times to get the appointment made. Which was eventually set up for 8:00 on a Monday. By the time they finally showed up it was 2:00. I called the office a few times after 9:00 that day to see where they were but no answer. I finally got a hold of them around 10:00. After they did such a wonderful job cleaning that day. I wanted to give Ame's a second chance, so I called a few days later to set up my appointment. left a voice mail and then never received a call back. I had to call another service.
Description of Work: This was a first time cleaning of approx. 1300 sq feet. The ladies cleaned the kitchen, living room/dining, 2 bathrooms and 2 bedrooms. They cleaned/dusted all surfaces and the floors. It took 2 of them approx 3 hours. They did an excellent job. They did a better job than I do!
